Moor Top Blues

The chilled musty air tormented the aging stone, the wailing wind sang. © Harry J Horsman 1993

I see congratulations are in order again. btw, Harry, put your name always on a poem entered into PD's contests. She blogged about it last week. I bet you missed it when you were off for a while. I'm sure that is the only reason this did not place higher.

I have been here..on the cliffs of Moher in Ireland. Good one! (Just leave off the periods...haiku's never have periods so the reader can envision the moment going on endlessly in time)
